So, what is natural yeast?

Natural yeast is a type of yeast that occurs naturally in the environment and is used in baking to create flavorful and healthy bread. Unlike commercial yeast, which is manufactured and standardized, natural yeast is made up of a mixture of wild yeasts and bacteria that occur naturally on grains and fruits. This mixture creates a unique flavor profile and is believed to have many health benefits, including aiding digestion and boosting the immune system. Natural yeast requires a bit more effort and time to use in baking than commercial yeast, but the resulting bread is often more nutritious and delicious.
